Key Themes & Discussion Points

1. The Principle of Tithing: Biblical Foundations & Generational Blessings

Scriptural Focus: Hebrews 7, Genesis 14, Malachi 3

• Tithing Predates the Law: Jonathan explains how tithing began before the Mosaic law, using Abraham’s encounter with Melchizedek as a template.

  “Tithing as we're going to read predates the Old Covenant... Anything that was established in the Old Covenant doesn't have to be reestablished in the New Covenant. It has to be done away with in the New Covenant if you're not to do it anymore.” (02:42)

• Spiritual Over Practical: The act of tithing should be motivated by faith and securing personal/corporate blessing, not just practical support of the church.
• Tithing as Generational Impact: Jonathan shares family history—how the discipline of tithing in previous generations paved the way for blessing in his family, even before family members became believers.

  “Just like you can pass down alcoholism and an anger problem, you can pass down in your family responsibility with God's money and an understanding of the blessing.” (21:19)

2. Supernatural Provision & Breaking Poverty

Testimonies:

• Testimonies of miraculous provision illustrate God’s faithfulness. Notably, several six- and seven-figure gifts given to their ministry, unsolicited.
• Personal conviction to avoid dependency on secular funds, referencing Abraham's refusal to accept the spoils from the king of Sodom.

  “…none of [the banks] can sit there and in arrogance say, ‘we gave that preacher or that church the money.’ they're going to have to admit that there’s an El Shaddai...” (05:18)

3. Living in Righteousness: Freedom from Oppression

Scriptural Focus: Isaiah 54:14–17

• Righteousness is imputed—received through Christ, not earned by works (33:00).
• Standing in righteousness makes one “unassailable,” immune to the world's winds and waves, and far from oppression, fear, and terror.

  “Righteousness gives you inherent boldness. Then second in righteousness shalt thou be established. Think of it as like putting your life on a foundation.” (35:54)

• Testimonies of supernatural deliverance (e.g., the young woman with occult tattoos delivered and filled with joy).

4. Authority and Protection: “No Weapon Formed Shall Prosper”

Powerful Testimonies:

• Nigeria: Church member survives a violent kidnapping when attackers’ guns miraculously malfunction.

  “‘The gun shot and the gun refused to fire. 15 AK47s. And then the people were released...’” (40:06, Pastor Palanici testimony)

• America: Stories of addiction, cancer, and tragedy being supernaturally turned around as examples of spiritual authority over the works of the enemy.
• Real-time miracles, e.g., prodigal daughter returning home after prayer (“God will never need more than 24 hours to sort out anybody's problem...” (46:58))

5. Jesus as Deliverer from All Oppression

Scriptural Focus: Acts 10:38

• Jesus is the solution to sickness, oppression, and bondage, not the cause. The devil is identified as the oppressor—God as the healer and deliverer.

  “…the same Jesus that broke that oppression 2,000 years ago, he has not changed.” (52:03)

6. Living Above:

- Addiction and Torment

• Addiction (cutting, substance abuse) framed as spiritual bondage; Jesus’ power cited as bringing total deliverance and even miraculous physical healing (vanishing scars).

- Depression and Sadness

• Joy is presented as a sign of salvation; “the joy of the Lord is your strength.”
• Testimony of joy breaking out and transforming previously depressed or oppressed lives.

“Your joy is coming back today. Somebody shout ‘joy—joy unspeakable, full of glory!’” (64:03)

- Disease & Infirmity

• Healing as purchased by Christ (Is. 53, 1 Pet. 2:24). Miracles reported (e.g., cancer vanishes without a trace).

- Lack/Financial Barrenness

• God as provider, giving “overflow.”

- Tragedy and Early Death

• Psalm 91:10–16 invoked for supernatural protection; teaching on longevity (“Long life is minimum 70 years old…” (72:59)).

- Failure and Defeat

• Romans 8:37 (“more than conquerors”); illustrated with stories of overcoming real danger and opposition.

- Victorious, Overcoming Identity

• Christians are not just survivors but “overcomers,” the “head and not the tail.”

"Say I'm the head, I'm not the tail. I'm above, I'm never beneath. Blessed in the city, blessed in the field, blessed when I come and when I go." (82:09)

7. The Call to Salvation and New Life

• Emphasis on being “born of God” as the gateway to victory and transformation.
• Public invitation to receive Christ and be transferred “from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of his dear Son.”

  “Whatever is born of God overcomes the world, and this is the victory that overcomes the world, even our faith.” (81:37)

---

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• “Giving is not to bless Melchizedek. Giving is to secure a blessing for the person that gives.” (07:06)
• “When God rewards you, you will know you’ve been rewarded.” (15:37, Congregation)
• “You don’t have to have some long drawn out battle with the devil today. You’re gonna look him in his dumb, dull, unintelligent, ugly eyes and tell him to behave.” (79:29)
• “Jesus not only set them free, he erased any evidence that they had ever been in chains.” (54:46)
• “Nobody serves God at a loss. God doesn't drag you through life. He puts his life in you and you begin to overcome the world.” (83:35)
• “You have to take my word for it. But you can look on chat GPT if you want. Long life is minimum 70 years old. Eighty-three score and ten...” (72:59)

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Podcast Host)]

Welcome to the Jonathan Shuttlesworth Podcast. To stay connected, go to revival today.com. and now, here is evangelist Jonathan.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Hebrews chapter seven, verse one. This is a revelation from the word of God that changed my life. And I'm not saying that lightly. It changed my. My giving and my tithing. The church that I went to before I started pastoring, I was an evangelist. But obviously on Sunday I would go to church. Sometimes they would not receive an offering or a tithe. They were like, very low key on giving. And I would bring my tithe up in an envelope and lay it on the altar if they didn't receive one. I don't mean in the middle of the service to like. Like, as my way of saying, you should have taken an offering. But before I left, after everybody's leaving, I would just go and lay mine up on the altar. And because this. What changed. What I'm gonna read to you is what changed it for me from tithing because the church is receiving the tithe, to tithing because the tithe is helping me. There's a scripture I haven't gotten to yet, as we've done this series on giving. I don't care if that baby wants to give or not. I'm gonna preach this message on tithing. It was a joke. Don't turn against the child because offerings were received. What's with you people today? Everybody. Everybody needs to switch to decaf. So I was raised that you. The tithes and offerings are like a necessary evil. The pastor kind of apologizes about it. Make sure everybody knows. No one has to give. This is something we do. Because how many know the church has bills just like everybody else. But this spiritual. Hebrews 7:1, this Melchizedek. By the way, what's the title of this book? It's not a trick question. You can read it. Hebrews. So it's written to Jewish Christians, and there haven't been Christians that long because Jesus had risen from the dead just a couple decades ago. So almost everyone they're writing to had grown up in Judaism where tithing was strictly enforced by the Pharisees. So when you hear people say that tithing's been done away with, then what it would need to say in Hebrews 7 is basically one verse. You all heard, we don't have to tithe anymore, Right? Good. Then on to verse two. But they actually give one of the best revelations on tithing. When people say something's done away with in the Bible, anything that was established in the old covenant and tithing as we're going to read predates the Old Covenant. But anything that was established in the Old Covenant doesn't have to be reestablished in the New Covenant. It has to be done away with in the New Covenant if you're not to do it anymore. For example, if murder is established, that thou shalt not murder, if it's not mentioned again in the New Testament, it's not a license to murder. It's just same with homosexuality and all that. That's called bad Bible interpretation. And say, well, that was only in the Old Testament and it's not mentioned that much in the New Testament. When things are done away with actually in this book in Hebrews, can anybody tell me something that was done away with that they deal with in the Book of Hebrews? Blood sac. Where'd you come from? Blood sacrifice. And it's not done away with in one verse. Or you have to kind of interpret a verse a certain way. You basically have three strong chapters telling about how we no longer use the blood of bulls and goats because Christ carried his own blood into the holy of holies. In the Book of Acts, Peter has a vision. How come when we go out to eat after church today, if we want to order shrimp cocktail or lobster tail, sometimes you'll hear comedians say that. These people say, believe in the Bible. Then how come you eat shrimp? I can answer if you'd like the answer. Because Peter had a vision of every animal that you were forbidden to eat. The Old Testament lowered before him and a voice said, peter, rise, kill and eat. And Peter responded, I will not eat anything that is unclean, that's forbidden by our Jewish customs. And the voice of God spoke and said, don't call unclean that which I have cleansed. And the Bible says this same vision was repeated three times. Anything we don't have to do anymore from the Old Covenant, you don't have to piece verses together. It specifically told you, well, not only is tithing Hebrews is in the New Testament, you have, in my opinion, a much better teaching on tithing in Hebrews 7 than you have in Malachi chapter or. Yeah, Malachi chapter 3, Hebrews 7:1. This Melchizedek was king of the city of Salem and also a priest of God Most High. When Abraham was returning home after winning a great battle against the kings, Melchizedek met him and blessed him. This is in Genesis, chapter 14. Now think of this. Abraham's tithe here was not a personal tithe. It was a corporate tithe. He led 318 men out to battle. They Took the plunder of war. That's how you made your money back then. There was no, there was no check. Getting fired off to your house on the 1st and 15th. What you captured was yours. You remember the king of Sodom said, you can keep my portion too. And Abram said, I will not take so much as a shoe latchet from the king of Sodom, lest the king of Sodom say I made Abram rich. That was my scripture for not taking any PPP money during COVID I actually was going to take it because an older pastor called me who I like. He said, you're crazy if you don't take this. Trump's doing it to help churches. And I went into the office to tell Patrick to look into it and that verse popped up. Don't take so much as a shoe latchet from the king of Sodom, lest the king of Sodom say he made Abram rich. And so when this church goes up in Pittsburgh, if the head of PNC bank and whatever the other banks are floating around Pittsburgh, if they all get together one day and say, did you hear about that church that built that 3,000 seater? Did you give them the money for it? No, I thought you did, Gary. They could smoke their cigars, but none of them can sit there and in arrogance say, we gave that preacher or that church the money. They're going to have to admit that there's an El Shaddai that still does for his people today what he did in the Bible. Can you say amen? And so Abram would not take from the king of Sodom. Then the Bible says he took a tenth before he paid his men. He took a tenth of everything he captured. And Melchizedek came. And it's going to tell you here, it's basically hinting that, that it was Christ. It at least was Christ in a picture, if not an Old Testament appearance of Christ. Anybody know what Melchizedek brought Abram before he gave him the tithe? Bread and wine. Bread signifying the word of God, wine signifying the Holy Spirit. That's a, that's why ministers today stand in Melchizedek's priesthood. That though the Levitical priesthood has been done away with, the Bible says Melchizedek remains a priest forever. And so it's, it's an order. A minister is to come and feed people the word of God. The more bread you feed, the more comes in.

[Congregation / Audience]

And then the new wine of the Holy Ghost.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

That's not why I'm not going to run off and have Grapes and cheese in the back and. And rest. You're to minister the word Jesus taught, then preach, then healed Malachi, brought the bread and wine, and then Abram gave him a tenth of all that he received. And then Melchizedek didn't say, thanks, that'll help me get home. Thanks, that'll help me in the ministry. That's when Melchizedek then loosed the blessing over him. The land that you're on now will be yours and your descendants forever. So giving is not to bless Melchizedek. Giving is to secure a blessing for the person that gives. That's why the Bible says it's more blessed to than to receive. Let me keep reading. I said, let me keep reading like you were the one stopping me. Then Melchizedek was king of the city of Salem and a priest of God most High. When Abraham was returning home after winning a great battle against the kings, Melchizedek met him and blessed him. Then Abraham took a tenth or a tithe of all he had captured in battle and gave it to Melchizedek. Many pastors are personal tithers, but their ministries don't tithe. So they are blessed, but their ministries struggle. They're on Instagram. Can you please help? We've hit a deficit. But then if you go to their house, they live in nice houses. Because the personal tithe secures a personal blessing and the corporate tithe secures a corporate blessing. The reason, just so you know, our church is a tithing entity. $35.7 million came in last year and we gave 5.3 million out. That's not outreach expense or discounts on Bible college tuition. That's money leaving our account to other places. Do you know why I do that? I do it selfishly because no matter how blessed God makes me, I think. I think if you average it out, we have to have $700,000 come in every week to break even. Well, if I was. If I had $5 million in the bank and all my bills paid, if the church runs short, that'll eat through my blessing like this. And we have many business owners here, you know that if the business is flush with cash, then your own personal salary is an afterthought. So many, many don't tithe. Then of those that tithe, they'll tithe personally, but their company doesn't tithe. And so they're always in financial trouble because. Because actually, if there's anything you're going to tithe out of, it should be. It should be the Corporate. That's what Abraham did. And so when you do that, it keeps the money coming in effortlessly, like it did for Abraham. Abraham took a tithe of all he had captured in battle and gave it to Melchizedek. The name Melchizedek means king of justice, and King of Salem means king of peace. There is no record of his father or mother or any of his ancestors. No beginning or end to his life. He remains a priest forever resembling the Son of God. If you would, from this point forward, do King James so I can read NLT and then reference King James if I want. So it's telling you, when people say tithing is in the old covenant, Levi was the Levitical priesthood began with Abraham's great grandchildren. So there's tithing going on before the law was ever given. Furthermore, it's being reinstituted in the New Testament right here, verse 4. Consider then how great this Melchizedek was. Even Abraham, the great patriarch of Israel, recognized this by giving him a tenth of what he had taken in battle. Now the law of Moses required that the priests who are descendants of Levi must collect a tithe from the rest of the people of Israel, who are also descendants of Abraham. But Melchizedek, who was not a descendant of Levi, collected a tithe from Abraham. And Melchizedek placed a blessing upon Abraham, the one who had already received the promises of God. And without question, the person who has the power to give a blessing is greater than the one who is blessed. Now here's the verse that changed my life. Verse 8, Hebrews 7, 8. And here men that die receive tithes, but there he, meaning Jesus, receives them, of whom it is witnessed, he lives forever. Now, because when you give to a business or you invest, many rich people, of which I'm one, that's how I got this bolo tie, paid cash for it. Many rich people get this idea that they carry forward into church. See, if you invest in a business and you carry 20% of that business, you're a 20% owner of that business. And so people start understanding that as how they give in church. It's like a horizontal understanding of giving. Then you have people say stuff like this. We counted it up and over the last five years, we gave over $31,000 to that church. They wouldn't even let our daughters sing on the worship team. Well, you weren't giving, you were paying a bribe to get your tone deaf daughter to sing on the worship team. You know, we counted up. We're probably the biggest giver at that church. And we asked if our son could be the youth pastor and they turned it down. We can't believe it. You don't understand giving. When you understand this, it's going to help you in two ways. A like when I walked my tithe and offering up at my old church. I'm not giving to help you. You are the man that's receiving it on earth. Because I can't put it in Jesus hands directly. But I'm giving this to God. And because I'm giving it to God, it's not horizontal giving. I'm not giving to the Assemblies of God. I'm not giving to whatever. Now, you might like me. Obviously you like me a little. If you're not a visitor because you keep coming back, but you're not giving because I like Jonathan. I want to bless Jonathan. I'm already blessed. Jonathan receives it on behalf of Christ. That's why you understand that the blessing doesn't come from the church. The blessing comes from see if I won't open the windows of heaven and

[Congregation / Audience]

pour you out a blessing that's so

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

great you won't have enough room to take it all in. Try it and let me prove it to you. Everybody say open windows. Then there's a second blessing. That's great. I'll rebuke the devourer for your sake. Most ministries that I won't say most, I think it's all ministries that don't tithe always have a deal coming through or a donor that said they were going to help. And then something gets screwed up when it's time to do it. That's called the devour. The devil, the Bible teaches, actually does a work to try to prevent you from receiving your harvest. Most people that are poor in America statistically are not poor because they don't work. They work every week and they have less than a thousand dollars in the bank and nothing in savings. If you read the Bible, Satan's people never attacked God's people when they planted their seed. He always went to attack when they collected their harvest. But God said, I'll not only give you an abundant harvest, I will put down anybody that tries to block your harvest.

[Congregation / Audience]

Coming in, you have a scriptural ground to have expectation to have the greatest financial year that you've ever had.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

In Jesus name can you say Amen here? Men that die receive tithes. When I give to Jesse Duplantis, he's a conduit. I wish I could go give to Christ, but I can't. But then the Bible tells you how to do it. Anyone that receives someone as my servant, what you do for them, you're doing for me. So when I do that, I do for those people that I give to and that we give to. From this ministry, I am marking you as somebody here on earth that will receive what I would like to give to Jesus. And whether you ever have me preach, whether you ever send me anything back. Yes, if you've hung around preachers, which in Texas you likely have, you know, we give to that guy every month. He's never even invited me to preach. You don't understand giving. Jesus said, if you give to those who can pay you back, you're no different than the heathen. But if you give to those who you know can't pay you back, your Father in heaven will reward you.

[Congregation / Audience]

And I can testify today, when God rewards you, you will know you've been rewarded.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Can you say Amen? That's where it comes from. That family that gave us a million dollar check three weekends ago, they don't go to our church. That was the first I've ever shaken hands with them. The. The harvest can come from anywhere. It can come from gold coins in fish's mouths. It can come from a miraculous catch.

[Congregation / Audience]

A fish manna can rain from heaven.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Ravens can bring bread and meat. But God will never owe any man anything. If you give, you will receive.

[Congregation / Audience]

Your gift will come back to you. Pressed down, shaken together, and running over to make room for more.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

I will cause men to give liberally into your bosom.

[Congregation / Audience]

If you can testify to that today,

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

can you say Amen, verse nine? And as I may so say now, most people think Paul wrote Hebrews. And Paul is gonna, if he is, the author, gets into some heavy ground here. Which is why Peter, who was the head of the church in Jerusalem, wrote in Second Peter, chapter three, our brother Paul writes about these things, even though many of his writings are very difficult to understand. That was Peter's way of saying, I don't understand what this guy's talking about half the time. So you really have to read what Paul writes in the Holy Ghost. Remember Smith Wigglesworth said, some read their Bible in Greek, some read it in English, but I like to read it in the Holy Ghost. Paul's revelation from going up into heaven is so deep, you know, I'm seated with Christ, what in the world? I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. You can't read that as a human being. It doesn't make any sense. This is one of these verses too. And as I may so say Levi also, who received tithes, paid tithes in Abraham because he was yet in the loins of his father when Melchizedek met him. Now you hear people preach endlessly on generational curses. Now let's talk about generational blessing that the Bible says. When Abraham tithed, it was counted as a blessing to Isaac, Jacob and Levi, three future generations, because God said the seed of them was in his loins. I'll close the offering part out with this, but this is powerful. It really changed my life. Camilla in second grade, she said, we're doing a report on our last name. What can you tell me about the Shuttlesworth? Well, I can tell you about my grandfather. I can tell you a little bit about my great grandfather. And then we're from West Virginia, so it starts to get murky after that. And if you start asking around, people say, don't ask. So I told Camila about my grandfather, who she met when she was too little to remember. He preached for 62 years, but he was the first Christian in his family. But his great grandfather, or his father, my great grandfather John Shuttlesworth, was a coal miner in West Virginia who was what I would call a weird dude. He refused to go to church ever. Not on Easter, not on Christmas. But he never didn't tithe. I've never heard of that in my life. I've never heard of someone say, I'll give my money, but I won't go because all those churches want is your attendance. No, usually it's all they want is your money, and I'll go, but I won't give. In fact, one time, the pastor came. He would package his tithe from the coal mine in a white envelope and give it to his neighbor who went to church to give to the Assemblies of God church. So the pastor came to see him one time. He said, I wanted to come meet you. He said, you're the one of the biggest givers at the church and our most faithful tither. We don't have a record that you've ever come to our church. He said, that's right. I don't go to church. And then he said, can I come in? And he said, no. And he said, are you interested in coming to church? I'd like to invite you. He said, I'm not interested. And he closed the door. I want to let the pastor in his house. Well, now, why does somebody tithe that won't go to church and doesn't live for the Lord? As we looked up Shuttlesworth, the first Shuttlesworth on record was Lawrence Shuttlesworth in England. He was a preacher. He ran it in England back when the British Empire, the sun never set on it. They kept tithe barns in every county in England. They're still there. They're not full of tithes. They're empty. But England, all the farmers would bring their tithe, like the Old Testament, into a tithe barn. And God expanded that empire through the whole world. Then they stopped, and now they're becoming an Islamic caliphate. There's a principle here. God said in Deuteronomy 28, because you would not serve me with joy and gladness of heart for the abundant benefits that you've received. Then you will serve your enemies, and you'll worship a God that your ancestors didn't know. That's what's happening in Europe. That's what's happening in uk. That's what's happening in Canada. But that's what we will never happen in Texas.

[Congregation / Audience]

Because there's people here that have shown up to say, God, as blessed as I am, I refuse to not take

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

the first day of the week and

[Congregation / Audience]

show up to tell you I acknowledge you as the source of everything good in my life.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Can you say amen? Well, the Shuttlesworth family kept the tithe bar, which tells you a couple things. A, they wouldn't take God's money. The whole county trusted them to not take God's resources. And. And B, they valued the tithe. Well, as far back as the 1600s sound, it's really only like three more fathers back from when my grandfather in West Virginia was there. So think about it. Everyone quit going to church, but they knew we don't take God's money. Don't take that 10% and put it in. And Abraham counted the. God counted the tithe. Good Lord. 646 of you people here today, not bad. Congratulations. Praise the Lord. Abraham was given a blessing that was counted generations later. So my great John Shuttlesworth, who just got saved just before he died, but never had a relationship with God, now that I understood why he tithed, I never could understand. Now I understood. Just like you can pass down alcoholism and an anger problem, you can pass down in your family responsibility with God's money and an understanding of the blessing. Now it started to make sense. Why my grandfather wandered into a tent meeting accidentally and got saved, why his four boys are serving the Lord, why me and my sister are serving the Lord, and Camilla's on her way because they made a decision in their giving

[Congregation / Audience]

that not only opens the windows of

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

heaven, God counts it as a Blessing to your future generations. I call you blessed today as you tithe, as you return the tithe and sow your seed today, you're not just receiving a hundredfold return though you will. You're not just receiving goods and property and houses like the Bible says, though you will. You are securing a grace for your

[Congregation / Audience]

family that no matter how wicked the

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

world gets, just like in Canaan and

[Congregation / Audience]

just like in Philistia, the hand of God will be on your children and your children's children and the heathen will rise up and call you blessed in

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Jesus name by the way. And that would have been a good note to end on, but I, I feel like still going of all. If you take a certain state of the 50 states, if you take a certain state out of the mix, the US economic numbers would be almost flat. What is that state? Where does the most giving worldwide? What country does it come from? Usa. And then out of? Usa, what state is the biggest giving state? Texas. Now if you're nervous about the economy, you need to quit worrying about the US economy and look at the tech because you don't live in the usa. You live in Texas. And Texas is bright green. It's the greenest growing estate in the

[Congregation / Audience]

United States because somehow a group of people were raised up here that decided

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

to honor God in their giving, honor in their sowing. Did you know Texans give so much that people think it's an American gospel that came from Texas to teach that if you sow you'll reap.

[Congregation / Audience]

But it didn't.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

It came from Abraham, it came from Canaan, it came from thousands of years ago.

[Congregation / Audience]

But Texans decide to believe it and do it. And God took them and raised them up to make them the mightiest of the mightiest nation on earth. That's not going to stop. That's going to continue all of this year whether the devil likes it or not. Get ready for the greatest blessing that you and your family have ever had in Jesus name. Can you say amen

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

revival today.com if you're watching online, Pittsburgh revivaltoday.com I'm not taking credit for this. You have your envelopes. I'm giving you time to fill it out. We'll receive the offering. I'm not taking credit for it, but you know, since we started our church in Pittsburgh, all steel mills were shut down. And then they made that deal with Japan to reopen the steel steel mills in Pittsburgh and are opening that up. Huge factories starting to open up again in Pittsburgh. What was called a post industrial town has turned in Two years into a current industrial town. Did you know God said, if you'll return to me in the tithe and the offering, your towns and your fields will be blessed. Why do you think they can't get that epic city with the mosque going? Because this state is God's state.

[Congregation / Audience]

The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and the state of those who have

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

received Christ as their Lord and Savior.

[Congregation / Audience]

Can you say amen?

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

There's all the ways to give. Give you a second to do that. Then I'm going to have them play a song in a second to ease the tension of giving. Ravel today.com you click give now if you want to mail a large check so that we had somebody give 1.26 million that's never been to our church in December. We had another person give a million couple weekends ago and then last week somebody pledged a million by the end of the year. We've had many people in Pittsburgh and here give six figure gifts without any. Who here has received a private text from me to please help with the building? No, and you never will. It's funny, all these churches that teach against prosperity, but then the pastor comes over your house and personally pressures you to give. So. And then I saw there was a preacher in Pittsburgh that got arrested this week for stealing baseball cards. You know what prosperity helps you to do? Pay cash for baseball cards. The people that preach against it are usually the most, the most materialistic and greedy. That's why they always know what Joel Osteen's watch costs. Can you say amen? Everybody say I'm blessed. Say I'm not ashamed to be blessed. Yeah. If Elon Musk can believe for a house on Mars, you can have one here. Can you say amen? You're blessed. Hold your seat up before the Lord, Pittsburgh. Hold your seat up. Great job this morning, Adalus. I'll see you tonight. Actually. Wear something cute. No flannel, please. Father, thank you for a hundredfold return on every seed that's sown. I pray the largest, most impactful businesses would be represented by people in this room. That you would take small businesses and turn them into regional businesses and then national and then international. I pray for ministries that are here that they would go from small to, to. To impactful this year. That by their sowing this blessing would start to kick in in a great way. Father, as we feel the presence of the Holy Spirit here. I thank you for everything you did this weekend. Thank you for knocking the cancer out of my South African friend there. Thank you for the Rest of it clearing out today. I thank you for all the healings and miracles that you've done. As we look around the room, let today be an explosion of your miracle working power. I curse cancer. I curse it in Pittsburgh. I curse it here. Curse it in bone marrow. I curse it in blood. I curse it in skin. I curse it in tumor form. I curse you in the name of Jesus. I thank you for your word that says in Psalm 118, 17 I will live and not die. That I may declare the good, That I. That I may declare the goodness of the Lord while I'm yet in the land of the living. I curse death. I rebuke it off of our people here. We didn't start a church to do funerals. We started a church to stop funerals. Drug addiction, fentanyl addiction, cancer, every weapon of the devil, it gets jammed up today permanently. In Jesus name and all God's people said, a living amen. Go ahead and receive the offering and then it's more of me.

hand clap one more time.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

You may be seated. Isaiah 54, verses 14 and 17. Two extremely powerful scriptures in the Bible and very important to understand. Isaiah 54:14. I don't think I got this for a memory verse the whole time I was in church. This verse would mess up almost everybody's doctrine if they read it. Isaiah 54:14. Is that your way of telling me I'm on my own? In righteousness shalt thou be established. Say that with me in righteousness, I will be established. So, Pittsburgh. I heard this a lot when we started the church. You know, I grew up in a preacher's home, so I never thought this way. Jonathan, we love coming here, my girlfriend and I, my wife and I. But we don't come to the altar even when you give the call, because we're not going to be hypocrites. We can't live like that. You know, I still drink, and so I'm not going to go up there and be a hypocrite. Righteousness is not you living better. Righteousness is imputed into you. When you receive Christ, you receive his righteousness. Then as you cooperate with that righteousness, it produces what the Bible calls holiness. And righteousness builds a firm foundation. I've had people tell me the last two years, especially around Pittsburgh, when the city was suing us because they don't like how big our church is. Jonathan, they're sniffing around. Sniff all you want. There's nothing to find. You'll find I play video games and preach and sleep and eat and fly. If it's a sin to eat Hutchinson's Barbecue, I'm going to prison for life. But I'm not. I told Patrick, I. We get our books audited by a professional firm in Baltimore that's not a Christian firm. And tell them I. I tell the auditor, audit me like you wanted to take me down. And then I told Patrick, have it ready that if the FBI came in, or whoever, which isn't going to happen under this administration, but past one, it was a chance. If they came in and said, we want. You have 30 days to get us all your documents say, we don't need 30 days. Here you go. We live like that, and then you become unassailable and unable to be taken down. When Covid hit and people shut their churches down, people said, why were they afraid of the virus? But we found out five years later, a lot of it had nothing to do with the virus. If you have a mistress, you don't want them snooping around your church. And so you don't stand up against wickedness because you stand a chance of being exposed. That's why Proverbs says, the wicked run when no man pursues them. There's a lack of boldness when you don't serve the Lord. Every time my wife asked me to go running with her, that's the verse I quote. The wicked run when no man pursueth. And then the second part of the verse, but the righteous are as bold as a Lion. So righteousness gives you inherent boldness. Then second in righteousness shalt thou be established. Think of it as like putting your life on a foundation. That the winds and waves of life have no way to move you. No one can take you out if you stand firm on the word of God. The Bible says your life is built on bedrock foundation. The same wind comes, the same waves crash. But they have no ability to take out your life. I see your life being established today in Jesus name. Thou shalt be.

[Congregation / Audience]

Thou shalt be and thou shalt be.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

What from oppression? How many know oppression comes to every one of us? Uh, in righteousness you shall be established. Not you'll get oppressed and God will deliver you from it. You will be far from. And oppression. That's where you start getting into. They'll lay their hands on the sick and the sick will recover. The things the devil does to the world not only can't take shape in your life, they can't stay around when you're around. Can you say amen? I'm going to show you. Don't play it yet. But I might play it during the message. One of the powerful things that happened in Maine this week. Mars Hilmain. As far northeast as you can go. A girl came to the altar. I didn't see it at the time, but she had 666 tattooed on her arm. A bunch of occultic tattoos on her neck and stuff. She came and received Christ and I was laying hands on the people that came to the altar like you've seen me do. And when I went to her, it looked like the demon was going to manifest. Her face got real tight. And then, you know, then they start yelling. But then I just felt it go. I gripped her hands and you could feel it leave. And her harsh face went to a bright smiling face. It was her first time in church. She fell under the power and laughed for almost an hour on her back. Because oppression shall be far from you. Cancer is an oppression. Today it'll leave your house for good. Depression is an oppression. Today it'll leave you permanently.

[Congregation / Audience]

This is the day the Lord has made. You're going to leave with reason to rejoice.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Be glad in it.

[Congregation / Audience]

Can you say amen?

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

And thou shalt not fear. And from terror, for it shall not come near thee. They're going to activate Iranian terror cells. Activate whatever you want. Terror will not come near me. I might look like everybody else, but I'm not like everybody else. I'm a child of the most high God. I preached this in Arizona yesterday. And I left this scripture out, but this will make it even stronger. Kill a lamb without spot or wrinkle, don't break any of its bones, drain its blood into a basin, then take hyssop branches and apply that blood to the doorposts of your home. And when the angel of death goes door to door, when he sees the blood, he will know he is not allowed to go into that house. That blood represented the blood of who? We don't have the blood that represents Jesus. The Bible says Jesus carried his own blood into heaven's holy of holies and sprinkled it over us. Us. So if the blood that represented Christ has power to ward off the angel of death, how much more does the actual blood of Jesus that's on you

[Congregation / Audience]

carry power to knock the devil out of your life permanently. I tell you a second time. Everywhere the devil has set up, sharpen your life. He's getting the boot today in Texas and Pittsburgh.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

In Jesus name, if you believe it, shout a living.

[Congregation / Audience]

Amen.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

17. No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper. And every tongue that rises up against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage not of pastors, not of apostles. This is the heritage of every servant of the Lord and their righteousness. Hallelujah. Their righteousness is of me. Praise God. Everybody say no weapon. Now, can that mean literal weapons or do we need to be realistic? Here is Pastor Palanici in Nigeria telling why his church grew from a few thousand to a hundred thousand in Nigeria. There's a problem with people kidnapping Christians and they make them recite the Islamic creed and if you don't recite it, they kill you. And so he's going to tell the story that they marched a boy on his way to university from their church. He was on his way to university, they kidnapped him, marched him into the bush, made him recite the Islamic creed. He didn't know it. They cocked their AK47s and went to shoot him. Everybody say no weapon. Roll it.

[Pastor Palanici (Nigeria Testimony Speaker)]

A woman, a widow woman who is on our welfare in church and the son is on our scholarship in Plateau State, was going to one of the bush areas in Plateau State from the school in barracking Lady Ferrari Polytechnic and crossing the river and going. And then they were accosted with by Fulani headsmen, 15 of them with AK47, marched them into the bush, striped them naked, asked them to recite the Islamic scene and they were not able. And they wanted to shoot. Now the gun shot and the gun refused to fire 15 AK47s. And then the people were released. So what is this? Wear your cloth back. And they went into the went. And this? The young man went back to school. About 10 days later, the head of the Fulani men traced the young man back to school. And he. Louis saw him. He said. He said, yes, I know you. You are the one who wanted to kill us the other day. He said, yes, you really know me. Please, I came to ask you for the secret of that power. I need that same power. Can you give me that same power? And he said, what are you talking about? He said, the power that made our gun not to fire. He said, it's the power of Jesus Christ. He said, no, give me. Tell me more. He said, because since that day, the gun has not fired anywhere. None of the guns. None of the guns has fired anywhere for nobody. He said, it is Jesus Christ that has given that made a difference in my life. He said, then I need to know about that. Jesus Christ. Fuller knee hates me. He said, can you give me your phone number?

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Pause and the man, can you give me your phone number? And the kid said, you stole our phones.

[Pastor Palanici (Nigeria Testimony Speaker)]

Keep going. So you collected our phone the other day. He said, please, I'm so sorry. We'll return back the phone. He said, I want to be your friend now.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

When such tests I want to be

[Pastor Palanici (Nigeria Testimony Speaker)]

your friend erupted and then people, okay, so this thing is fightable. So this thing is.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

So I want to play the rest because yesterday I played one of them. There's a second one too. So he said, this is what caused the church to start to grow. Because the thing everyone was in fear of, people said, wait a minute. This thing's conquerable. This thing can be defeated. Well, we don't have kidnappers here in Texas like that. But you have cancer, you have fentanyl addiction, thoughts of suicide, divorce. The church is to be a place that people know in town. If you go there, that is a cancer free zone. That is a death free zone. That is an addiction free zone.

[Congregation / Audience]

Every weapon that's been formed against you,

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

I want you to know it's conquerable today.

[Congregation / Audience]

It's defeatable today by the power of Jesus Christ.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Can you say amen? One more.

[Pastor Palanici (Nigeria Testimony Speaker)]

Within the same two weeks, we had another one. Young girl from I think Benios or somewhere was going to lay doors around or reside. They were kidnapped by kidnappers, put in a lorry, taken into the bush in the thickness of the jungle. She sat down and closed her eyes and was singing one of the songs. You are always There to help. You are always there to help me. Even when no one was there. She bent her head, finished singing, open her eyes. And she was sitting on the highway by the military checkpoint. She had disappeared from there. Translocated, transported from the road, sitting by military checkpoint on Benin or expressway. And the soldiers welcomed her. Oh, because they heard what happened. Oh, you are welcome. Sorry. And then kept her for another 24 hours, transported her to Lagos. People heard such things and then boom. We started hearing calls. Somebody was kidnapped. Can you pray? We're coming to church and so forth.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Bring it back to me. So that's what grew the church. Because then now people started bringing people. Hey, my cousin was kidnapped. Can you help? And they started to realize where you can't get help in the world, there's help with God. Can you say amen? Flash me on the screen if you have. I didn't tell you to get it ready, so I'm not yelling. Tell me if, if you have the one from South Carolina of the people whose daughter was. Okay, so before I play this, you won't hear it on. On the video because I said it to him after. But I. I gave him a weird word like the kind my dad would make fun of. You sound like nuts. But I felt to say it. I said, an angel is going to go before you and go to your house and straighten everything out. Now off camera, they said after the service was over, you said that thing about the angel sorting things out at our house. Our daughter is on drugs. We don't even know what state she lives in and we would like her to return home. I said, angels, go get her daughter and bring her back now. 20 minutes before service ended, the police had her at the house. They had discovered her and brought her back home. Roll it. This is two weeks ago. This sounds like something some weirdo that's a preacher would say. But I can only say what I'm told right now. An angel is going to your house before you get there and clearing the way. Your house will be different when you come back. Your. Your house won't be a tormenting place or a sad place. God's presence will be in that house. So the daughter was missing. Pray that angel would even screw the light bulb tighter so that it'll be brighter in there. Not. Not like dingy Jesus name. Tell Jonathan that family he prayed for after. After service, that the daughter was missing. Got the call last night about 20 minutes before service was out to meet the officers. They had her daughter. Hallelujah. You know, I was getting Ready to say, angels, go bring her home by the end of the week. And as I got ready, because then if she doesn't come by the end of the week, I'm already out of town. You know what I mean? So then can get away. And as I got ready to say end of the week, I felt the Lord as strong as I've ever heard him inside my spirit now, not end of the week now. Because God created the whole world in six days. He will never need more than 24 hours to sort out anybody's problem, no matter how dark it is. I'm trying to raise your faith today to understand that the problems in life are defeatable. Not over the course of 15 years. You might have been battling something for 25 years, but it only takes one

[Congregation / Audience]

Sunday in the anointing to knock the devil out permanently. And I see him exiting your life permanently today.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

In Jesus name can you say amen? Acts 10:38. So what weapons are we going against? Acts 10:38, no doubt. You know how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and power who went about doing. Everybody say Jesus does good. Yeah. We don't know why he took my grandma. He's not taking grandmas. He's not taking anybody. It was never his will for anybody to die. Satan is the author of these things. Jesus is the solution to these things. How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and power who went about doing good and healing. How many will God heal me? Are you all. Yeah. Jesus didn't play duck duck goose when he healed people. Healed. Not healed. Not healed. Not healed. Not healed. Healed. He healed them all that were. Who was the oppressor? The devil is the oppressor. Whatever anger you have at God shifted to Satan. Satan is the author of cancer. Satan is the author of pediatric cancer.

[Congregation / Audience]

Satan is the author of suicide. And we're running his story rear end straight out of Texas today. By the power of the word of Almighty God, no doubt.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

You know how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed of the devil for God was with him. I wrote this down. When you give your life to Jesus and read your Bible, there becomes a clear understanding that I am meant to live above the natural. Everybody say living above the natural. So I titled today Living above addiction, Depression, disease, lack, tragedy, failure and defeat. Living above addiction. All the things they tell you are normal. You know, if I owned a pharmaceutical company, I would tell you it's Normal, too.

[Congregation / Audience]

I would try to get you to

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

lower your guard, to think you're meant to be a victim of one of these things. I'm not bragging today, but I'm telling you I don't have any of these things. I'm not battling addiction and winning my battle. I don't have it. I don't have addiction. I never have. I never will. I don't have depression. I've depressed many people, but I'm not depressed. I have joy unspeakable and full of glory.

[Congregation / Audience]

I don't have disease. I don't spread disease. My hands are anointed to lay on the disease and see the disease dry up. I don't have tragedy. I have angels that are ordered to protect me wherever I go. I have the order of God in my life. I don't have failure. I have good success and I don't have defeat. I have glory to glory, victory to victory, and strength to strength. That's. That's not my inheritance. That's the inheritance of everyone who's a servant of the Lord. Congratulations in advance on the greatest year. Number one.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Living above addiction and torment. You won't find heroin in the Bible. You won't find fentanyl in the Bible. But you will find what the Bible refers to as a tormenting spirit. Mark 5. 5 and always night and day. He was in the mountains and in the tombs, crying and cutting himself with stones. Torment that leads to mutilation of the body is of the devil anywhere from. I mean, say this with me. The devil has no new tricks. Yeah. So have you ever heard my teenage daughter cuts herself? Yeah. It's caused by an oppression of the devil. I'll tell you one right now. I was going to talk about drugs, but it's the same thing. Because you talk to people that are on heroin and stuff. I sure have. You know, hey, what do you think you're supposed to tell them? Hey, you shouldn't do drugs anymore. You know what they'll tell you? I know I've been trying to get off drugs. I've been to the methadone clinic eight times. I've been to rehab five times. I've been to prison, then went back to prison for the same thing. I don't want it anymore. But something comes over me and I can't get relief from it till I do that drug. That something is an oppression of the devil. And the same Jesus that broke that oppression 2,000 years ago, he has not changed.

[Congregation / Audience]

He is the same yesterday, today and forever.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Somebody say, knock the Devil out. I did a youth camp and there were two girls over on one side of the altar and they were crying with their hands lifted. I was gonna lay hands on them to receive the Holy Ghost, which I did. But the Lord had me say something again that sounded strange, especially at a youth camp. I said, there's a demon spirit that's been assigned to both of your lives. You know, you don't wanna freak anybody out, especially teenagers. But I said, and he enjoys watching your bodies be destroyed. But today the Lord removes that spirit and it'll never come back again. And I went to go lay hands on them. They had their eyes closed. This is in Pennsylvania. And as I got close to them, I never got my hands to them. They both went out with no catchers and shook under the power of God and laughed and cried and enjoyed themselves in the presence of God. The next day, I didn't know what was wrong with them. They were 15. They said, can we testify about what happened to us? I said, sure. They said, we're cutters. For 18 months, we cut ourselves on our hip where nobody can see it. That's how I met my friend. See, if you don't get friends based on mutual strength. I'm friends with Jesse Duplantis, not because we like playing basketball together or because we went to elementary school. We have, like precious faith. He never calls me up and says, you need to slow down. He's keeping a heavier pace than me 30 years my senior. So you run with people and build friendships on strength, not on where you grew up or where you went to school. If you don't, you'll end up having friendships based on mutual weakness. That's where support groups come from and why nobody ever gets free from the support group. Because talking about problems doesn't alleviate the problem. It causes the problem to increase. But talking about the Bible and talking about Jesus and speaking faith filled words

[Congregation / Audience]

loses the power of God to break

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

every chain and open every prison door. Can you say amen?

[Congregation / Audience]

How many can tell you're getting free right now?

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Yeah, you are. They said when you prayed for us, we felt this pressure that would always. We couldn't get free from this pressure until we cut our skin. When you prayed for us, we felt whatever that pressure was leave. And then I went to change for bed and obviously if you cut yourself in the same spot for a year and a half, there's going to be some serious scarring. She said all the scars were gone. So I ran to go tell my friend and she met me halfway because she was running to tell me all her scars were gone. Listen, Jesus not only set them free, he erased any evidence that they had ever been in chains. That's what's happening today.

[Congregation / Audience]

You're not only getting set free, there

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

was will be no evidence that you ever were in bondage in Jesus name, my friend. Brother Jeff, that's in the front row that we've read that text about Dana, that they ran the test about cancer and they said the machine must be broken. It's not because the cancer went away. It's because there's no way you can have that much cancer and there not be dead cancer cells somewhere. So they said it must be broken because it's showing like you've never had cancer. Let me tell you something. We have not even scratched the surface of what a great physician, Jesus, he not only can do the surgery, he can make you stronger than before.

[Congregation / Audience]

I said you're getting stronger today than before you had the attack. The devil will rue the day he didn't take you out when he had the chance.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

In Jesus name addictions are tormenting spirits. John 8:36. What's your promise of freedom? If the Son therefore shall make you free, you shall be free indeed. 2nd Timothy 1:7. For God has not given us a spirit of fear. And one translation says torment, but of power, love and soundness of mind. Weapon number two, depression and sadness. If you've battled it, David battled it. Psalm 42:11. Why art thou downcast? By the way, let me tell you something about proper Bible interpretation. And you know I know what I'm talking about because I'm wearing a navy blue suit. So obviously I know a lot of things. When the Bible tells you stuff like David battled depression. That's not so. You can start a doctrine of even David battled depression. No, the Bible's not the Quran. It doesn't turn everybody into superheroes. It tells you when people messed up. It's telling you that people face things but you should always take as your life scriptures. Ones like Isaiah 54, 14 and 17. Never use someone's story story to overturn what's plainly written. The Bible says oppression shall be far from you. Can you say amen? Why art thou downcast, O my soul? And why art thou disquieted within me? Hope thou in God, for I shall yet praise him who is the health of my countenance and my God. Psalm 35. Weeping may endure for how long? Night. Anything that's overstayed one night, you know, you don't go to your Grandma's funeral and laugh like an idiot. The Bible says there's a time to mourn. But if you're still mourning about the same thing nine years later, or 31 Christmases later, because of a tragedy that happened on Christmas, and the devil has now used that thing to permanently steal your joy and make what's supposed to be happy times, sad times.

[Congregation / Audience]

Today, God is restoring your joy and

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

giving you back your strength.

[Congregation / Audience]

He's not waiting till tomorrow.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Your joy is coming back right now. In Jesus name, may I pray for you. May I pray for you? Come right to the side. Jesus is touching you right now. I don't think I've ever met you before. Huh? Houston. In where?

[Worship Leader / Singer]

Houston.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Houston. You came from Alaska? Lift your hand. All this untimely, tragic death that happens around you, it stops today. And the fear and torment that came with it leaves you forever in Jesus name. Hallelujah. So today's an illustrated sermon. Psalm 126, Brother Hagin's favorite scripture. Psalm 126, verse 1. You can do NLT. When the Lord turned our captivity, we were like them that dream. 2. Then was our mouth filled with laughter and our tongue was singing. And the nation said, what amazing things the Lord has done for them. Yes, the Lord. Who said? Who said amen? I heard an amen.

[Congregation / Audience]

Amen.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

I pray for you, Sister Sharon. Come around, if you would.

[Congregation / Audience]

The Lord has done amazing things for us.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

What joy. Restore our fortunes, Lord, as streams renew the desert. Hallelujah. If your life's been like a desert,

[Congregation / Audience]

there's a river from God flowing into

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

that place right now and turn it into Scottsdale.

[Congregation / Audience]

You're gonna be a Scottsdale in the middle of the desert.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Go ahead. Come here, Ms. Sharon. Lift both hands. Close both eyes. I know you already have joy, but today the Lord gives you more joy. An overflow of joy. In Jesus name. Take another one. In the name of Jesus, I pray. Be the happiest cellist in the history of cellos some more. Scripture. Restore our fortunes, Lord. As streams renew the desert, those who plant in tears will reap with shouts of joy. They weep as they plant their seed, but they sing as they return their harvest with their harvest. Let me see. Verse 1:2. Then was our mouth filled with laughter. I'm not trying to get everybody laughing, but at that church in Maine, that lady that came up with all the occultic tattoos, she laughed. You could tell they'd never seen it before. Where's that in the Bible? Laughing right there. Mouth filled with laughter. There's enough sad churches Churches aren't supposed to be like mosques. They're not supposed to be like Buddhist temples or Hindu temples.

[Congregation / Audience]

Every dead religion has no noise. But the church is celebrating that our God's not dead. He is alive. And it should sound like.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

It sounds like it in here. So I'm not looking to glorify manifestation, but this really. You can't hear it that well. Because the auditorium wasn't miked. We had to move from the church to the only place that could hold the amount of people that came. The church was up 5x from Sunday. By Friday night, this lady that got set free brought her whole family, her sisters, her mother, her boyfriend, to see what God had done for her. And they all came up to the altar and got saved. And on the last night, they were out under the power, all of them lasting. None of them had been to church before that week. They didn't know anything about this. But God doesn't need you to know anything about it. He'll fill your mouth with everything the devil did to try to take your laughter away. Your laughter's coming back in force.

[Congregation / Audience]

The only tears you're going to cry

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

from today are tears of joy, saying,

[Congregation / Audience]

surely the Lord has done great things.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Here's Friday night in Maine. You have the video. They laugh like that for an hour and 10 minutes. That's the girl with the 666. The. The. The one laying on the flat of her back because they're faking. You try faking it, you'll rupture your abdominal wall. You can't fake laugh for an hour and 10 minutes. Furthermore, why would anyone come from Section 8 housing? You know, I'm going to go to that revival meeting and just laugh. No, that girl hadn't laughed ever. You could tell it had been decades since she smiled. But the devil's going to have a bad Sunday in Texas and Pennsylvania where

[Congregation / Audience]

the devil that tried to make it so you never smile again, you're going to be shouting and singing and dancing Hallelujah.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Every time I go to pray for a kid at a pediatric cancer center and you walk through the waiting room with all the parents, any cancer center, but especially those ones, and there's no smiles, no laughter, no joy. Everyone's face looks heavy because you're waiting on test results. Did the chemo work? Did it get the cancer? Did it get the cancer and affect other things in the brain? No one's happy. That's Satan. Satan is the author of no Joy. And I don't know who in the world tried to get that into the church that the mark of you serving the Lord. Looks like you were maced or pepper sprayed. I will enter his gates with thanksgiving in my heart.

[Congregation / Audience]

I'll come into his courts with praise.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

In heaven.

[Congregation / Audience]

There will be no more crying, no more pain, for the old order of things are passed away forever. And he said, pray that my will that is done in heaven be done on earth. Your joy is coming back today.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Somebody shout joy, joy unspeakable, full of glory. You have never heard me say and you never will hear me say. We're all in a mental health crisis. I'm not in a mental health crisis.

[Congregation / Audience]

I have the mind of Christ. And Christ wasn't depressed. Christ wasn't sad. Christ was going to funerals and making the mothers sing when they got their son back. Jesus is a joy bomb looking for a place to go off. And he found a place to explain.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Explode today in Texas. One of the churches we're going to soon, Antifa, has been picketing outside of that church. It's in a liberal city, harassing the church people as they go in and out. You think I'm going to duck my head? Hey, we need to be careful how we leave. I'm going to take whatever route to my car I feel like taking. And any church person, somebody said, what are you gonna do if they storm in the church? We need to put people so they don't get in. No, we're gonna let them all in, then we're gonna lock the doors and they'll wish they never walked in. Brother Chuck, stand up with me. Brother Chuck's coming with me. He's one of the smaller guys that'll be there. We're bringing an army.

[Congregation / Audience]

We're gonna let the devil know in America. You're not running this place over, my friend. This is the hour of the church of the Lord Jesus Christ. You don't have to duck your head to any devil. You don't have to put up with the devil's mess. Jesus is alive on the inside of you and he's given you the victory.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Somebody shout hallelujah. Well, say it out loud. The Lord is good and his mercy endures forever. Number three, victory over living above disease and infirmity. Second Kings 20, verse 5. Thus saith the Lord, the God of David, thy father. I have heard thy prayer. I have seen thy tears. And behold, I will heal thee. You have a promise of victory over all sickness. Everybody say all sickness. Everybody say all disease. But he was wounded for our transgression. He was bruised for our iniquities the chastisement of our peace was upon him. And by his stripes you are healed. First Peter 2:24. After Jesus did it, who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree by whose stripes ye were healed. If ye were healed, then ye is healed. Can you say Amen? You're not waiting on Jesus to do anything. Say with me, the full price has already been paid. You look very healthy to look at you. This lady with the nice silver hair and glasses. I'm going to pray for you. I feel the Lord's healing you right now. Number four, freedom from lack and instead financial overflow. Philippians 4:19. But my God shall supply how many of your needs according to his riches and glory by Christ Jesus. By the way, on night two, when that lady came back with the 666 tattoo, I felt the Lord speak to me clear, show her that I can be better to her than the devil ever could have hoped to be. So I said, do you have your own place? She said, yeah. I said, what's the rent? She told me. I said, it's paid for the next year for you. She went. She didn't say, praise the Lord. She went, are you freaking serious? Oh, yes, I'm freaking serious, my friend. And then she started bringing. That's the next night was when she had her sister and her boyfriend and her mother where people were trying to see, who are these people that are taking care of my daughter? That's going to be the story of the church in this last hour of time.

[Congregation / Audience]

This is going to be a place not where people get heavier burdens put on them.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Jesus will lift your heavy burdens.

[Congregation / Audience]

Can you say amen? Man, I feel like singing today. I feel like dancing a little bit today. I feel like rubbing in the dust devil's face a little bit today. This is the hour of the people of God. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Somebody say Financial overflow number five. Protection from tragedy. Psalm 91:10. I'll read Psalm 91:10 to the end of the chapter. Do NLT. I want to get this in your spirit. Everybody say death and life is in the power of the tongue. How many know we could all die at any time. Anybody talks like that ain't getting on my plane with me. You're a hazard. You're opening your mouth and magnetizing things to you that you don't. It doesn't matter what God says about you in his word, matters what you believe and speak. Who told you we could all die at any time? It's not in the Bible. We're not promised tomorrow. Yeah, because the rapture could happen. But in lieu of the rapture, I'm sticking around for a long time. How many evils will conquer you? How many plagues will come near your home? By the way, what does plague mean? What's plague in Old English? Incurable sickness and disease. There's no cure for this. Yeah, it's covered. Everybody say, no plague. No plague will come near your home. 11. For he will order his angels. I mean, when we're in this world, there's demons that we pick up with. I'm not picking up demons. I got angels ordered to be with me. I got angels to protect me wherever I go. Wherever I go means Congo, Central Africa. Don't make a bit of difference. St. Louis. Let me tell you something. You need those angels as much as you need them in Nigeria. You need them at The Whataburger. In St. Louis. You need them at the White Castle in Louisville, Kentucky at one in the morning. But wherever you go, there's angels looking to protect you. And sadly, most of the middle Renaissance art about angels. They're fat little babies playing harps and some of them have trumpets. Well, no wonder Christians are afraid. If I thought I was going into antifa territory with a couple of fat babies playing a harp, I'd be. I'd take some karate classes or something. But you know, the Bible says there was one angel that killed 185,000Amalekites in one night. All the angels don't have musical instruments. Some have gold teeth and neck tattoos that say, only God can judge me. And they like killing.

[Congregation / Audience]

You got killer angels on your side.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

You got warrior angels on your side.

[Congregation / Audience]

The angel of the Lord goes before you and makes every crooked pastrake. You're not going to die. You're going to live and declare.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Everybody say, I live above tragedy. 11. He'll order his angels to protect you wherever you go. You won't even hurt your foot on a stone. Or like nowadays, it'd be like a Lego.

[Congregation / Audience]

13.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

They you will trample upon lions, cobras. You will crush fierce lions and serpents under your feet. David must have taken this literally. That's why when they ran off with the sheep, he ran after it. Come back with this sheep. You are a lion. I am a child of God. He knew his covenant. Can you say amen? 14. The Lord says, I will rescue those who love me. I will protect those who trust in my name. Hallelujah. Not I might, not I can, I will Protect those who trust in my name. When they call on me, I mean, no. He can answer. Many times he doesn't answer. We don't know why. When they call on me, I will answer. I will. I will be with them. In trouble. If you're in trouble, God's with you. In trouble. Most friends go missing when you're in trouble. God seeks out people that are in

[Congregation / Audience]

trouble to show that he's the master of the trouble.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Whatever trouble you're in today, health trouble,

[Congregation / Audience]

financial trouble, gang trouble, legal trouble, God is going to be your advocate today. You're coming out with a testimony. I'll be with them.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

In trouble.

[Congregation / Audience]

I will rescue them.

[Worship Leader / Singer]

Them.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

I will honor them,

[Congregation / Audience]

I will reward

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

them with what kind of life? You have to take my word for it. But you can look on chat GPT if you want. Long life is minimum 70 years old. 83 score and 10 by 3 score and 10 or 4 score by reason of strength, 70 or 80. Anybody that reads the book of Acts like it's some kind of caveat on the Old Testament promises of God. Paul died. Yeah, actually all of them died. And so will the idiot saying that it is appointed unto every man once to die and after that the judgment. But Paul, some scholars put him at 70 or 71 when he died. John 92. You want to know what the average lifespan was in the first century Roman Empire? 38. They were living till their late 60s. At the youngest 70, 90, when people died at 38. Long life. I said long life.

[Congregation / Audience]

I'll give them long life.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Don't. I'm telling you. Cut that crap. We could die at any time. I'm not dying today, I'm not dying tomorrow.

[Congregation / Audience]

In fact, I'm not dying this year. I made up my mind about next year. I'm not dying then either.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

I'm not here.

[Congregation / Audience]

God didn't give me that jet to crash it. He gave me that jet to start churching and preach and do mighty things for God. You're not going down. You're just getting warmed up. Stop thinking about death. Life belongs to you.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Somebody say tragedy free life. Yeah. Your life's not up for grabs. God offered protection. 6. Living above failure, defeat. Romans 8, 37.

[Worship Leader / Singer]

Nay.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

I'm start saying that more often. Sir, would you like some water?

[Congregation / Audience]

Nay,

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

nay and all these things. We're not conquerors. We're more than conquerors. When Floyd Mayweather wins a championship fight and gets a 50 million dollar check, he's a conqueror. When he hands that check to his wife and she goes to the Store and spends it. She's more than a conqueror. She didn't have to do any fighting. She just got the check. We didn't have to go to the cross. Jesus went to the cross.

[Congregation / Audience]

We didn't have to rise from the dead. Jesus conquered death and he gave those keys to the church which is his body. He's the conqueror, but he made us more than a conqueror through him that loved us.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

First Corinthians 15:57, 7. But thanks be unto God who gives us the victory through Jesus Christ. 2nd Corinthians 2:14. Now thanks be unto God who how many times causes us to triumph. How many times? How many. Sometimes things happen and we don't understand. Yeah, because of you. You. You're the problem with your little mealy mouth. Something. Let me just sum up 90% of sermons this Sunday. Sometimes we don't understand when certain prayers don't get answered and there's the storms of life and he's anchoring the storm.

[Congregation / Audience]

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

You have no overcoming in your voice. I had a guy, everybody say my voice, say, speak the word of God with the voice of faith. We had a five week revival in Massachusetts in 2014, I think 2012, 2014. And it's supposed to go three days, went five weeks. The church had 140 people. We had 380 first time decisions for Christ. They had to build a new church. It's up, up in Mass. So one of the things that obviously the devil doesn't like when stuff like that's happening. So demonized people come into the meetings after like week two. So they had a crash door like back where that one is. But you know, that's why, that's why security. It's not like a show of force. I just, this isn't my first rodeo, so at least make it kind of difficult. So they didn't have any security. So this guy comes in the crash door unlocked with a lead pipe, you know, and I'm telling you, everybody say the joy of the Lord. I wasn't afraid. When I looked at him, I thought, where are you getting weapons from? Why do you have weapons from the 19th century? You're like from the game Clue. What are you gonna hit me with a candlestick next? The preacher was killed in the sanctuary with a lead pipe. So I see him, he's on here. I want to find out later. He's walking like the heroine walk with the pipe coming at me like. And of course, typical Assemblies of God church, no one moved every. The preacher's on his own, hey, film. It's about to get good. Well, I'm not. I was probably. I fasted all the time back then. So I'm. If I'm not fasting, I'm in no shape to take anybody on physically. I can't fight. And so I. I looked at him, and as my mind is making up its course of action out of my spirit, it must have been an importation from my great grandmother. I went, hey. And his eyes open, I went, behave. When they. When I said behave, my head thought, behave. That's not really street talk. Let's be. Let's be. Let's be well behaved today. When I said behave, he shook his head yes, took the nearest seat and put the pipe under his seat. Then I gave the altar call. He came up to get saved. I prayed for him and then he waited after for me. Eyes look totally different now. He said, hey, sorry about coming in here with that weapon to kill you. Hey, we all have bad days. Don't worry about it.

[Congregation / Audience]

Isn't it.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

It's all right. He said, I don't know what happened. He said, I just came in here. And he said, I hated you. Yeah, you're not the first. You don't even have to be on drugs to do that. I hated you. And he said when you said behave, whatever that was making me hate you. That's how he talked. Whatever it was making me hate you. It's like you left. He said, I really like you now. Say, great, somebody go get that pipe in case he changes his mind. I'm telling you, you don't have to have some long drawn out battle with the devil today. You're gonna look him in his dumb,

[Congregation / Audience]

dull, unintelligent, ugly eyes and tell him to behave. And he's gonna sit his scrawny butt down and you're going over to the other side in the power of almighty God. If you receive that today in Pittsburgh and Texas, put your anointed hands together

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

and clap one more time.

[Congregation / Audience]

Let out a shout of victory today.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

First John, 5:4. Whatever is born of God overcomes the world. Everybody say I'm born of God. They don't tell you that in other churches. My mother. Is that true, Aunt Kathy, that you guys went to church about every other week at Polish Catholic church. I knew you went to Catholic church. That's my mom's sister. And I asked the older sister. They didn't go that much by the time my mom was born. She's the youngest sister. They went to church. I thought they went to Catholic church, like twice a year they went every other week on average. And nobody told them about being born of God. Nobody told them about being born again. You tell the priest your sin tells you how many Hail Marys do the thing and then come back the next week. They never told them every one of them was on their way to hell. Father. Bound by cigarette smoke, died of lung cancer. My grandma, nice lady, not saved. None of them saved. And then this. This is why I'm preaching like this, because there's people like that today. You live in Texas, you know about church, you know about Jesus, but you've.

[Congregation / Audience]

Have you ever been born of God?

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

I was reading what impacted. This is powerful. John Wesley impartation is such a powerful thing. John Wesley went to one of George Whitfield's meetings when he was preaching in England to the coal miners. And they said the coal miners faces were black from coal soot, like thick black. And as he preached, they all had streaks down their eyes that were white from crying the coal off while he preached. And he said seeing their black faces with white streak tear marks made an impression on him that lasted forever. This is why I'm preaching today. Your life might be covered in the soot of sin and depression and all

[Congregation / Audience]

that and everybody's told you it's normal. But today, as the word of God

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

goes in, there's a washing coming.

[Congregation / Audience]

It's scrubbing that junk off. It's giving you righteousness. Whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that overcomes the world, even our faith. I tell you a final time today, get ready to trample on the head of the devil like he's d. Hallelujah.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Lack tragedy. What was six. Thank you and six all around? Victory. That covers everything. Say I'm the head, I'm not the tail. I'm above, I'm never beneath. Blessed in the city, blessed in the field, blessed when I come and when I go. That's right. So then when you get that in you, I'm telling you, I'm not saying it macho and I'm only bringing the chucking those guys to be smart. But our victory is in God. It'd be a cold day in hell when a bunch of people marched off the street into this place and we all just hugged each other and wished they'd go away. No, we are an overcoming church. We have dominion in the house of God. We have dominion outside of the house of God. And I took a little time to preach to you. What area? Practically what areas I Tried to cover everything. What areas you can exercise that dominion over. Say this out loud, my life's not up for grabs. I'm going to live a long life. I want you to say it convincingly. I will live a long life.

[Congregation / Audience]

I will live a sickness free life.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

I'm going to say very strong things, but they're all biblical. Put Exodus 23, 25, Exodus 23, verse 25. Ye shall serve the Lord your God. Everybody say I am. Yeah, we're not playing bingo. We're serving God right now. We served him up praise and worship. We served him up listening to his word. He likes when people attend unto my words for their life under your flesh and radiant health. He likes prayer. We did that. My house shall be called a house of prayer. You shall serve the Lord your God. Nobody serves God without benefits. That 666 lady came in and in two days she had her apartment paid for and her family changed and healed. Nobody serves God at a loss. God doesn't drag you through life. He puts his life in you and you begin to overcome the world. And I've heard people say the dumbest stuff like, you know, they, they as powerful as Jesus was, they put him to death because he let them. He remained quiet before Pilate. And Pilate said, are you going to be quiet before me? Don't you realize I have the power to take your life or set you free? That's the only time he perked up. Make no mistake about it, my friend.

[Congregation / Audience]

You have no power over me whatsoever

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

except what's been given to you by my father. No man takes my life from me. I lay it down willingly.

[Congregation / Audience]

He does not.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Killed in the middle of his ministry. He was not murdered. He came. Do you know why he died? Because all his preaching couldn't save us.

[Congregation / Audience]

There had to be the shame. Shedding of blood for the remission of sins. So he laid down his life. But he died my death so that I can live his life. Stop thinking about death. The life of Christ is yours. Long life is yours. Healing is yours. An overflowing cup is yours. Protection is yours. You're going to change things for your family today. In Jesus name, jump up on your feet and give the the Lord the biggest hand clap and shout that you've ever given anybody. Let the redeemed of the Lord say so. Somebody shout a living hallelujah

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

as we crest up towards 700 people at this two year old church in this beautiful building. There's more here than there is in Pittsburgh right now. That'll last two more Weeks revival today church will be a group of people that makes the devil sorry he's the devil. There'll be a group of people that remind the devil he's the devil. You don't scare me. You don't have a big red body and horns. You're an emaciated, effeminate, gender confused, full of wickedness, cast down to earth broken headed enemy that had your teeth knocked out of you by Jesus who stripped

[Congregation / Audience]

you of all your power and gave it to the church which is his body. You don't cast me out.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

I cast you out.

[Congregation / Audience]

Will you have power over the devil? The devil has no power over you. Lift your hands all over this place in Pittsburgh and Texas. Be healed in Jesus name be delivered in Jesus name. May the joy of the Lord balance baptize you today. One wave after another wave. Things that have run in your family for years, generations, they stop permanently today.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

In Jesus name.

[Congregation / Audience]

Let me pray for one more person

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

before I pray for everybody. May I pray for you, ma'?

[Worship Leader / Singer]

Am?

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Take a step out of the aisle if you would. Power God's on you. Put one hand on your belly, one hand on your heart. I wouldn't be surprised if we end up with north of 80 verified healing and miracle testimonies today. You can feel it brewing. People came ready today. I know. I've had that myself. Yes. Yes, Pandora. And she could feel within herself that she had been healed. May I pray for you, miss? Lift both hands to the Lord. As you do, the power of God comes upon you. And yes, put one hand across your heart and lungs all damaged under your body from your life before Christ is reversed. Just look. The Lord did it for those young girls at youth camp. There'll be no trace that you ever didn't serve the Lord. For if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature. The old life. India. Jesus is here. He said wherever two or three gather in my midst. I'm there. He's here right now. May I pray for you? Separate out. There's both hands. Close both eyes. As you do, the power of God comes upon you. Thank you Jesus. He renews my youth like the eagles. So beyond healing. He'll give you your youth back where you'll move like a young person again In Jesus name. New cartilage in your knees. New nerve endings in your feet. Indiana. May I pray for for you. Step right out. Lift both hands and close both eyes. Everything is turning around In Jesus name. Every heavy weight lifted by the anointing. Permanently in Jesus name pray for. Was that Rachel's sister. Pray for real. Praise God. God. Lift your hands, close both eyes. Just like I told that lady in that other section. All damage from the past is reversed. Supernatural in Jesus name. Thank you, Lord. Now from here on, when you feel like clapping, lift your hands instead. Just begin to thank God out of your mouth. I'll bless the Lord at all times. His praise shall continually be in my mouth. Bless the Lord, I tell myself, and forget not all of his benefits. Who forgives all my sin and heals. Let me say he heals all my diseases. Did you hear them come out with that study on Saturday? The flu shot didn't work at all. When are you going to get your eyes off a man's help and get your eyes off of onto God's help? Can't you say Amen? Can I pray for this lady in the denim jacket? Row two. Power. God's on you. Lift both hands, close both eyes. Same as I've been telling these other people, like it never even happened. A totally new life In Jesus name. Your life turns today. The things that happen had a hold on you before, don't have a hold on you anymore. In Jesus name. Every head bowed, every eye closed. If you're here today and you've never made Jesus Christ your Lord and Savior, that's where everything starts. Whatever is born of God overcomes the world until you're born again. As my aunt and my mom's family proves, you can go to church, faith faithfully and experience nothing that's in that Bible. But when you get born again, the devil loses access to your life. You're transferred out of the kingdom of darkness and into the kingdom of his dear Son, that day. And so this is that day for you in Pittsburgh and in here in Texas. If you're here and you say, jonathan, that's me, I need to receive Jesus Christ. I'm not living exactly like I should.

[Congregation / Audience]

But today I want to turn my

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

back on sin and come to Christ and start a new life with him. I want to pray with you when I pray. I would love the privilege of praying with you if you say Jonathan, when you pray that prayer. Please include me in that prayer. Let me see your hand upon wave it at me and we'll pray right now. In Jesus name. I see your hand. Who else? You either want to come to Christ or come back to Christ.

[Worship Leader / Singer]

Christ.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Put your hand up where I can see it. Nice and high. I'm on. I see you. Who else? I see you. Who else? Yes, in the back. The dam's breaking. Who else?

[Congregation / Audience]

Pittsburgh.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Who else? I see. Very quickly, the Bible says, come out of the crowd and be separate. And I will be your God and you will be my people. That's why we give public altar calls. Everyone that lifted a hand, come out of your seat and join my brother here. We're gonna pray right now in Jesus name every hand that was lifted.

[Congregation / Audience]

Yes.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

Yes. Yes.

[Congregation / Audience]

Yes.

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

The walk.

[Congregation / Audience]

The devil worked over a time to

[Jonathan Shuttlesworth (Evangelist / Main Speaker)]

make sure you never made. Make it. Stick it to him. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Jesus.

In Pittsburgh and here in Texas. Lift your hands to the Lord. Say this nice and loud. Heavenly Father, I've come forward today to give you my life. Forgive me of all my sins. Wash me in your blood. I believe in my heart you raised Jesus from the dead. I confess with my mouth. Jesus is Lord and my Savior. Right now I receive forgiveness. By the blood of Jesus, I am saved. I am forgiven. I am clean. In Jesus name, amen.
